Replacing CHECKPOINT_WAIT with CHECKPOINT_IMMEDIATE broke it. Don't do that.
If you want to change the behavior of pg_start_backup() to perform the
checkpoint immediately, change "CHECKPOINT_WAIT" to "CHECKPOINT_WAIT |
CHECKPOINT_IMMEDIATE".
The usual work-around though is not to hack the source code, but perform
a manual CHECKPOINT just before calling pg_start_backuo(). That makes
the checkpoint performed by pg_start_backup() finish quickly.
